Are you excited for Marvel’s next big Summer super-mega-crossover event, Secret Empire, revealed earlier today on Bleeding Cool (though we told you about it back in December) (and July) (pip pip)?! Super-mega-crossover events are the lifeblood of the comic book industry, but sometimes they can be a little difficult to keep up with, what with all the tie-ins and shaking the Marvel Universe to its very foundations. That’s why Bleeding Cool has put together the handy Secret Empire Marvel Event Checklist, so that you can follow all the major developments throughout 2017 (and into 2018 when the comic is inevitably delayed)!

We’re starting off with “Someone acts like a Nazi” already checked, since the book will be focused around Nick Spencer’s Captain America, who was recently revealed to be a lifelong member of Hydra. Print out a copy of the checklist and hang it on your bathroom wall so that while you’re reading about the event on Bleeding Cool, you can check off all of these classic Marvel moments, True Believers!

A prophecy says that in the comic book industry's darkest days, a hero will come to lead the people through a plague of overpriced floppies, incentive variant covers, #1 issue reboots, and super-mega-crossover events.

Scourge of Rich Johnston, maker of puns, and seeker of the Snyder Cut, Jude Terror, sadly, is not the hero comics needs right now... but he's the one the industry deserves.
